Practicing is not just about writing a lot and often.
Practice requires constantly going back to what you wrote, too.
My English isn't as good as I'd like it to be, but:
1. I know it would be worse if I didn't review my writing :)
2. I'm bold enough to claim that I write pretty well at least in my first language.
On message boards I'm notorious for editing my posts, sometimes several times in a row, reverting previous changes etc. :) It's a bit embarassing, since this is obviously a neurotic trait. But peaceful minds don't strive for excellence :)
Never be happy with what you just wrote. Keep trying to improve it.
